Sleep isn't looking good tonight, too much to do :(

tell me about it, i'm at work.

Have a funeral wednesday and after the wonderful funeral expenses (ultimately costing me my audio money for the season) i'm gonna see if I can't save up enough to buy my camaro after all.

video of the 2010 Camaro at Nurburgring:

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Gener...photopanel..2.*

The first 2010 camaro drag racing car has also been built, can be seen in gm hi-performance magazine iirc.

GM High-Tech Performance or Chevy High-Performance?

and which issue?

hurry tell him fast

that video may have been enough fix for him now

but a new camaro drag car well that will keep him flying high for a while

lol

Honestly I always seem to get them on the same day so it's one or the other, just go to you local pep-boys and read it... Atleast in my case, one of my best friends (camaro owner as well and she is hot) works at the local pep boys and I can sit there and read the entire magazine if I wanted to.

Hm, I subscribe to both, but I haven't read the latest issues yet.

Fucking dead tired. Haven't slept well for the past since months thanks to the ogre (pregnant girflfriend snoring) next to me every night. Got 4 hours last night. Went to bed early tonight and wake up to a shotgun blast somewhere around here and it's eyes wide open now.

A 13-year-old kid in Virginia has backtalked to his mom for the last time. When he was told to do his chores instead of play Xbox 360, he went and intentionally broke the vacuum cleaner to get out of it. What'd his mom do? Well, she's selling his Xbox and all his games on eBay. And that was before she found out he was surfing porn sites by checking out his browser's cookies.

Found someone locally that's giving away an automatic turntable that has an issue with the arm, thinking I can cannibalize the motor and platter for a DIY record cleaner :)

Now I just need to find someone selling a vacuum cleaner cheap...

hmmmm....

New Camaro is butt ugly. If I was given one, I'd drive it straight to Detroit and burn it on GMs doorstep.

It just seems to me that GM and Ford are building these proof-of-concept vehicles that may be great technologically, but Toyota and Honda are laughing their way to the future in a Camry/Civic.

To be sure, I think there are major problems with the way Toyota has been pushing hybrids, but I'm just shaking my head at how GM is thinking they can be profitable with what they're doing.

Speaking of, there was an excellent letter written to Hot Rod Magazine in the April issue about the "benefits" of biofuels (E85, etc).

Eff the bio fuels. They all just need to come together and get the hydrogen thing done. IF everyone does it, it will be easy and less expensive not to mention the effect it will have on the environment, although I read that water vapor is a dangerous greenhouse gas? How the fuck is that possible?

E85 is pretty much worthless right now with the technology

How much damage could a 13 year do to a vaccuum cleaner? I bet its salvageable :)

Too much water vapor, and we'd be back to the kind of climate the dinosaurs lived in :)

Heck, too much oxygen in the atmosphere and a lot of life on the planet would be screwed...

I think with the current technology we have, biofuels can be done cheaply and would be a transition to whatever's on the horizon. I think corn-derived ethanol is a joke, but Brazil seems to be having good luck with sugar...

I'm a fan of both biodiesel and EV's because the level of technology is relatively low for a home builder, you can do either on the technology we have right now without much difficulty. I'd rather give corporations the finger now, instead of waiting potentially decades for a world-changing technology to finally become mainstream.

water molecules do absorb more heat than air does so I guess it could heat things up that way

:unsure:

do they absorb more than ozone killing gases though?

Ironically enough from what I read about bio-diesels is that they are still as efficient as diesel. E-85 on the other hand is a joke. My brother's truck uses it and we live in the northeast, and at 70 cents cheaper a gallon but with a 25-40% less gas mileage you don't really gain anything out of using it. On the same note, why can't we have the real smart car. I'm sticking with wanting an LS1 camaro as its capable of 28mpg on the highway, the american smart car gets like 32 mpg... see where I'm going with this. In all honesty there is nothing more frustrating to me than seeing people driving escalades and suburbans and hummers with only one person in the vehicle.

I refuse to drive anything that gets less than 20mpg unless it is carrying one or more passengers. Hell even our commercial van gets 22mpg on the highway @ 70mph and I think driving that unless at work is a waste.

Only ever had on vehicle that got over 20 MPG and it was a rental. Hell, even a ford freestyle rental we had only got 19 (4Cyl) and our old F-250 diesel got 17-18 on the highway... go figure.

The only time I see real good gas mileage is in real small cars. ones I don't feel safe in
